Duchess Garden sets vibrant dahlias and peonies on a contrasting plain damask ground, full-blown garden flowers laid over the ghost of formal ornament. The two registers work together: the damask lends structure and depth, the blooms lend life and colour.
Layered designs of this kind read richly without confusion, the flowers always leading. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, drawing rooms and halls, carries a room nearly on its own, and asks only for plains drawn from its quieter notes. A 150gsm paper, made in the United Kingdom.
